there realize that the boom has COLLAPSED
and they try to keep up appearances and
prevent the truth from being known by
refusing to offer their holdings for sale
This is, however, cheating nobody But

eighteen months. anything like fair

The Knoxville boom died suddenly,

There is not even an echo of its dying

which many of our citizens had for the

mourners, who so about tile streets. 1t

How did Slfsz get to
be an editor ola paper
for the suppression of
Polish patriotism.

To see the towns folk suffer so,
From ZWIAZEK, is a pity:
They give no earnings to us priests
And interfere with our mean deeds.
By continual speaking
OF bad character Of US deacon.
AT last ths people in a body
To the Icek's hall came flocking;
tbs clear, cried they, our ICEK'S a noddy.
And as for our ZJEDNOCZENIE shocking.
Rouse up, sir! Give your brains a racking
To find a remedy we are lacking.
Or. sure as fate, we'll send you packing
At this Icek and his administration
Quaked with a mighty CONSERVATION.
An hour they sat in council.
AT length WINCENTY broke silence.
Its easy to bid to rack ones brains.
lam sure my poor head aches again.
l have scratched IT so and all in vain,-
At the chamber door a tap.
Just as he said this what should hap.
Bless us, cried WICK, what's that!
Only a scraping of shres on the mat.
Come in, WICENTY, cried looking bigger.
And in did come SLISZ,s' figure
And advanced to the council table.
And please, Your SWIETOBLIWOSC l am
able,
By means, of a gazety's charm, to draw
All creatures belonging to the mob.?
After me so as you never saw.
And contra ZWIAZEK use my charm
And creatures that you deacons harm.
And as for what your brains bewilders,
Will yearly give me a thousand g~uilders."
Thousand and all bourbon was the
eclamation
OF the astonished ICEK'S conspiration,
Smiling SLISZ a little smile
Onto the Noble STREET he slept.

THE GOSPEL MEETING.

evening. A very deep interest was mani
Tested, and the meeting was most fruitful
and encouraging. Rev. Mr.. Maben offered
prayer. Mr.. Stebbins sang when the

9Th sinful men" DIR. Pentecost preached
most tenderly and impressively taking his
text from Matthew ~ "a. Thou art not
far from the Kingdom of God" God gives
man light enough 50 lead him into the King
dom, and gives him an opportunity to receive
Christ. There are some men, who though
not yet christians, are not far from the King
dom of God Such are those who attend
church, and read the bible, who have christ
ian parents who are surrounded by prayer,
who are searching for the light. Upon all
such persons Christ looks with interest, and
desires them to enter the Kingdom.
If you do not enter, this hopeful and en-
couraging state of mind becomes dangerous.
Overcome all difficulties aud step into the
Kingdom tonight. A large number of per
sons accepted salvation in Christ.

Why Col. Lambard was Removed
To the Editor Of the kenneJec JourHat:

10 the EdtfoT ot the heHhebec J0UrHaE
AUGUSTA, Dec. 3, 1897.
The removal of Col. Thomas Lambard as
Superintendent of the construction of the
new post Office, in this city, is an outrage and
an insult to which our people will not tamely
submit. Though not republican. Col.
Lambard is gentleman whose good taste
long experience and excellent judgment es-
pecially qualify him for this position. He
not only knows what is a good job but he
knows how to do one. The foundation and
sub basement which have been constructed
under his supervision, bear emphatic testi-
mony to the skill and judgment which he
has brought into service, and the fidelity
with which he has discharged his trust. The
government inspector has pronounced it one
of the best pieces of work in the country.
We hesitate not to say that man can be
found who is better qualified ia fill this posi-
ton than Col. Lambard.
| Why then is he thus summariy removed?
Simply and only to satisfy the vultures
and the ackals of the democratic party.
| Ever since he was appointed they have hung
upon his track. They have been ceaseless
/ in their cndravors to taste his blood. But
! he has turned neither to the right nor to the
left he has maintained his self respect and
dignity throughout making no move whatcv-
er to retain his position, hut leaving the
matter wholly upon his fitness. as evidenced
by the work he has done. He Is nov in
/ formed that his services will not be required
after the 18th of this month. We maintain
that the citizens of this city have some rights
in this matter which ought to be respected
and We are confident that more than nine
tenths of all our towns people will be indig
nant at his removal. of course tn" position
is now to be filled with striker and q wire
pull,r Col Lombard is and always has
been Il democrat but he has not been willing
to walow in the mirc of politics; hence he
must make room for one who is. To the
cry of the bosses make place for him
he has turned "A deaf ear. and only those men
have been employed whose services have
been deemed necessary he has m@de no place
/ for anybody. We repeat. this removal and
the cause of it are an outrage and will prove
boomerang TO the strikers who have ac-
compished 1t. CITIZEN.

A Fish Chow der.

One of Augustus good citizens who is a
devotee of Isaac Walton, tells good story
which he vouchcs for While he and party
of friends were on a fishing trip they left
their boat fastened to the shore while they
were in camp, eating dinner. In the bows
of the boat was bag containing about a
bushel of white perch, which
they had taken from a net. A
cow came along and tore the bag open
and ate nearly all the fish. Such were the
statements of this citizen who declared he
could bring forward those who saw the oc-
currence Furthermore said he. You may
take fresh fish to this same COW if she hasn't
gone onto the retired list and I'll bet fifty
meal.
Why" said a listener, odd Jones
saws that YOU take pickerel, white
perch and black bass and put them before a
COW and she will eat the pickeral first and the
bass last of ALL
A well known public man who is something
of A wit remarked this fisherman for a wonder
is too modest to tell the whole story. You see
when they came out from their tent and saw
what the old COW had done their anger was
naturally excited. Well they drove the old
bovine into an angle of the fence and pro-
ceeded to take milk in pay for their fish. If
YOU will believe it they MIXED from that COW
ten quart pail full of the finest fish chowd-
or YOU ever tasted. and what's better there
wasn't bone in it,"
There was profound stiffness in the room
only interrupted by the cough OF a man VINO
had swallowed chew of tobacco.
